Thomas Grae built a a studio space. I really liked working with George and Shaynaeh. They were professional and the work quality was excellent. They were very helpful taking my vision and bringing it to life. This project was especially challenging because I was not at the house or readily accessible in person. We communicated with texts, Zoom and email, so it was challenging especially choosing flooring, fixtures, bathroom tiles. Shaynaeh was really great understanding my taste and bringing finishes that mirrored it for my selection. There were periodic updates on the progress complete with pictures so I felt connected to the project even though I wasn’t there in person.
We plan on working with them again to remodel our bathrooms.

It was my first time using a designer and I was a complete novice. I hired Thomas Grae to redecorate my living room. I was all over the place with what I wanted the room to look like. They were extremely patient, guiding me through the process and genuine in their desire to understand what I really wanted. I think they nailed it! The job was completed on time and on budget. I would highly recommend them and look forward to using their services again.

Thomas Grae is so great that we hired them for two different (large projects) in different years. They completely transformed eleven spaces in our home. They execute your vision effortlessly and efficiently. Outstanding value. I really could go on and on!

From conception to installation, it was hands down an awesome experience. The attention to detail created a cohesive design. When having your first child, you may have a lot to worry, about, but her nursery wasn’t one of those things. It is a sweet retreat for me, a nursing mom. And a vibrant room that my daughter can grow in for years to come! It is a unique design that looks like it should be in the pages of a magazine but cannot be duplicated!
I highly recommend working with Thomas Grae, and I look forward to next project!
